Tank, I see you're still a BEAST!!!! Nice weights my man and I'm stoked to see that your shoulder felt great! Bench Press is the exercise that hurts my shoulder the most. Usually if I be3nch, I do it last and will go lighter and do some 4X sets or something similar.

Great attitude Tank! I'm in the middle of a possible career change. It's still up in the air. I love my job, but I'm starting classes to get into a Physical Therapy Assistant program. If I go through with it and get a good PTA job I may continue to get my doctorate in Physical Therapy. I could become a PT and eventually, with my masters in adminstration, I could be an administrator at a PT Clinic.

As a maintence/custodian I became pretty close friends with the staff as well as the students, that was the hardest part about leaving, but the politics on the other hand....That the final straw for me.
My hours, except during the winter months, are brutal, but I'm outside, driving in the country enjoying myself again!
I have several HS athletes under my wing yet, one is a freshman,5'9'' 170lbs and is dunking like a 6 footer...One proud coach!!

Running back and fourth to hospital, 2.5 hr drive one way. I'm getting in my AM cardio before we hit the road, then when we get home running to the gym to blast a body part or 2, then more cardio...
Work called....I will have to run payloader next wk, no running to down to see the grand babies...:( work sounds like it will pick back up by Mid March.
My game plan when it picks up, will be to get a memebership at the gym close to where I work.
As of now, I'm staying home tomorrow, no travel so I will get my days/journal in order!
